Hey,

Can't find a relevant post, so just leaving this here for anyone new thatay need it.

Please just let me know if it needs to be posted in a different section.

Hey all,

Just a thought.

Ninja Gaiden has the ninja license for sub 12.30 runs... Jaws has a fishing license for sub 3.20 runs.

Batman is a hard game, and tough run... should there be a Dark Knight / Vigilantte license for say, sub 11.10 or 11.20 runs??

Just a thought, I think it would be fun.. lets discuss this.

So, my good friend twitch.tv/FrostedPears done some digging around the coding of this game. Heres what he found!!

The coin changes position every 11 frames, it follows the following pattern:

                  A52B61C72D83
                   E941A52B61C*

What does this mean? Well, there are 16 doors in the bonus stage. From Left to right:

     0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F

So if the coin was in door 7, 11 frame later it would be in door 2. 60 frames per second, so do the maths... I have found, through 2 hours trying tonight, that directly after a reset, count 6, and on 6 start the game, and 4 times out of 10 the coin will be in the centre, door 8, exactly where you want it. In 1325 attempts i got the coin 9 times, tonight alone i have got it 4 times .. and when im off, its only by 0.18 seconds, or 11 frames. So this 6 second buffer, + consistency should improve the coin chances. Its not guaranteed, but its more than we previously knew. For me, i aim to hit the last door / wall in a stage as below: Stage 1: 15 seconds Stage 2: 35 seconds Stage 3: 1.10 Stage 4: 1.35/36.. Pause buffer as fast as possible on stage 2,3,4 and bonus, and with a bit of luck, you'll get the coin more than ever. Again, massive thanks to @FrostedPear on twitch. Follow him, hes a genius.

Kind Regards, Deadguy

Hi!

Is it ok to just start the timer, and end once the character disappears down the hole? I use the keyboard for splits so may miss time splitting the 3 rounds

Morning guys,

Just checking if the mods are still active for this leaderboard?

Kind Regards,

Deadguy

Hi all,

Probably a dumb question, so apologies. My pc crapped itself, so im stuck with the ps4 for now. That means i wont have a visible timer on the screen, as i will be just going straight through Twitch. Does there need to be a visible timer for this? If so i cam just practice until my new pc is built Thanks in advance! Deadguy

Hey All!

New to the community here. So i know emulators are allowed for runs, but i just want to be sure, can you run Kung Fu if you added it to the NES mini with hatchi? I pressume so, irs the same thing, but runs at 60fps.

Thanks in advance

Justin

Hey All,

Do NES mini and Nes emulator runs count? Decided this as my first speedrun project, so gonna start grind.

Also, im only stsrting my setup, so need to upgrade to windows 10, so do you need records of practice runs and stuff?

Nice to meet you all anyway dudes and dudettes!

Just wondering if anyone has thought of creating an app as an alternative to going on the site?

Hey dudes and dudettes!

Im Justie from Ireland. Love watching speedruns on twitch, so caught the bug and decided in the new year to try my hand at speedrunning some games. Im totally new to this so please be kind to my stupid questions.

1. I plan on speed running NES Emus, you recommend USB nes troller or original one?
2. Would a laptop with 4gb of ram be ok to stream NES emus and twitch?
3. Is Streamlabs recommended?
4. Best split timer?

I hopefully dont annoy with with those stupid questions :(
